What Is a Clamping Plate?
Clamping plates are boards used to securely fasten workpieces to a worktable without leaving marks. They play a vital role in various processes such as metalworking, carving, and milling, especially in machining equipment. By stabilizing the workpiece, clamping plates enable precise processing.
Commonly, these plates are flat, square-shaped with holes, grooves, and mounting points on the surface for attaching fixtures, accommodating workpieces of different shapes and sizes. Made from materials like cast iron, aluminum alloys, and steel, they are valued for their high rigidity, durability, and corrosion resistance.
